When I was a young, hungry college student, I was one of the hired flunkies that helped move a couple of big safes when a business relocated. It was an eye-opening experience. Without the right equipment and training it was a very difficult and dangerous task. We barely accomplished the mission and were lucky no one was hurt.
As a mature adult with a few dollars in my pocket, I have paid professional safe movers both times I have needed to move a big safe. They are amazing to watch, and well worth any reasonable cost. And much cheaper than a trip to the Emergency Room.
